RUSSELLVILLE, Alabama -- A young mother in Russellville is facing domestic violence charges after police say her infant tested positive for alcohol last week.

Police responded to a call about an unresponsive baby last week. Paramedics found the five-week-old responsive but transported the baby to a hospital for tests. Police say medical personnel called them after smelling alcohol on the baby.

Authorities administered a breathalyzer and say the five-week-old had a blood alcohol level of .283, which police say could have been fatal. The baby has been treated and is expected to be OK.

The baby's mother, 19-year-old Katherine Putman, is charged with first-degree domestic violence. She is out of jail on a $50,000 bond.
